Be-new-fit

Last night, Mary Claire and I each chose a Pinterest craft to make. We decorated mugs and mason jars while listening to country music. It was a perfect girl's night in during this Chicago winter. Today I stopped into Benefit with my friend Li and we tried on new make-up. I purchased the Instant Brow Pencil and Fakeup Concealer. It's always refreshing and fun to switch up your make-up routine. I also receive Birchbox in the mail each month to try new products. They have it for men and women. It's a new year and a great time to get out of your comfort zone. What new things have you tried so far in 2015?

Love,
Olivia

Happy New Year!

It's officially 2015! My New Years Day was spent relaxing with my sister. We went to church together, got Starbucks, did yoga and watched episodes of Friends with Klaudia and Brad. I also made my New Year's Resolutions: 1) Be on time and 2) Blog at least once a week. I definitely want to be consistent on my focus of fashion and hopefully inspire you. Cheers to the New Year!

Best,
Olivia

I wore a silver sequined dress from Revolve.

New Year's Eve

2014 has come to an end. This year has been filled with great experiences and adventures. I celebrated my 22nd birthday on the rooftop overlooking Chicago, visited Poland for my cousin Paulina's wedding, attended Lollapalooza, moved into my first apartment in Chicago, started working at Tiffany & Co. on Michigan Avenue and ended the year at Hard Rock with my best friends Mary Claire and Monika. It's been an amazing year and I can't wait to see what 2015 brings for me. Fifteen is my lucky number so I'm sure it will be a good one. :) I wish you all the best in the New Year!

Love,
Olivia

'Tis the season

It's officially Christmastime in the city, my favorite time of year! After Thanksgiving dinner, my family and I started the season with some Black Friday shopping, I scored a gold iPhone 6 and some clothes. I went home to the suburbs in Algonquin and decorated the house all festive. It always feels good to be home with the family.

Today I officially started my Christmas shopping. I'm trying to get it done early to truly enjoy this time of year. Our apartment in the city is all decorated and we are watching Christmas movies every night. This weekend is TBOX  and I am so excited to go again. While I was getting my TBOX tickets, I met Santa. I already have my Christmas outfit ready to go! Stay tuned for more pictures. Happy Holidays! :)

Fashion Forward with Garance Dore!

Last night, I attended the Fashion Forward event at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Garance Dore was honored the Fashion Inspiration Award and I am so happy I got a chance to be apart of it. I even got a chance to meet here! Ever since I started following her fashion blog, she has always been such an inspiration for me. I enjoy her fun and laid back vibe for a woman working in the fashion industry. This is Garance's first time in Chicago. She is originally from France and currently lives in New York.

The Fashion Forward event featured wearable technology installations that combined fashion and science. The way we rely on technology now, will lead to wearable technology in the future! With the use of social media, fashion has truly become instant and ready-to-wear. The event also featured Garance Dore's beautiful illustrations. I met a lot of other fashion bloggers at this event and I plan on attending more fashion events in the near future. Enjoy the pictures!

Halloween 2014

How was your Halloween weekend? My roommates and I had a Halloween Housewarming party on Saturday. We all dressed up as the four seasons! We made our own tutus for the colors of our season and it was a lot of fun to wear. I was summer. :) I wore a yellow tank, pink lei and a swimsuit with my tutu. Other fun costumes that I liked this year were Cindy Lou Who, Audrey Hepburn, Bambi and Mrs. Doubtfire. Costumes are the best when they are homemade. It's original and you won't have to worry about someone having the same costume as you. What were you for Halloween this year? Can't wait for the upcoming holidays!
